And Rachel said, God has judged my case, and has also heard my voice and given me a son. Therefore she called his name Dan.

And the standard of the camp of the children of Dan (the rear guard of all the camps) set out according to their armies; over their army was Ahiezer the son of Ammishaddai.

And of Dan he said: Dan is a lion's whelp; he shall leap from Bashan.

Now there was a certain man from Zorah, of the family of the Danites, whose name was Manoah; and his wife was barren and had borne no children.

And the woman bore a son and called his name Samson; and the child grew, and Jehovah blessed him.

And the Spirit of Jehovah began to move upon him at the camp of Dan between Zorah and Eshtaol.

And he judged Israel twenty years in the days of the Philistines.

In those days there was no king in Israel. And in those days the tribe of the Danites was seeking an inheritance for itself to dwell in; for until that day their inheritance among the tribes of Israel had not fallen to them.

So the children of Dan sent five men of their family from their territory, men of valor from Zorah and Eshtaol, to spy out the land and search it. They said to them, Go, search the land. So they went to the mountains of Ephraim, to the house of Micah, and lodged there.
